That is kind of like the quilt I made for someone special and it ended up on the garage floor for the dogs to sleep on. Just breaks my heart when I see an abused quilt. I now keep them all for me.

Thank you Poodles, I appreciate your compliment. I am sure that you are short changing your own abilities. Don't compare your work with others, each is unique and exhibits it's creators personality.

Those lucky dogs to have such a luxury to sleep on! Dogs are smart and they know a good thing when they see it.

My mum has done the same thing. Her 'little' dogs' claws would catch the applique and pull them off, so she has it put away in her cupboard to keep it safe.

Both of my Aunt also enjoys what I have made for them, they are so proud that every new friend was shown the items I made. Both are craft oriented especially the youngest, she is into folk art painting and when she is well she teaches it to others including my daughter, and my GD who was 3 at the time. She has not been well this last year so DD has not been to see her.
